CURRENT ADDRESS:
Describe yourself as a student teacher. What skills have you learned in your field study
classes or in your general experience in life or work that would support your
placement as a student teacher in your selected school(s)? In what ways have you
been change by your college classes that make you believe you are prepared for the
rigors of student teaching?
Here at Fort Lewis College I have gained an abundance of experience working with
different grade levels and abilities. I enjoy working with individual students one on one to
supply them with all the encouragement and support that they need to have academic
success. As a teacher, I believe it is important to identify students strengths and
weaknesses to help teach in various ways for students to retain the knowledge. Having a
personal connection with the students is one of the most important things when working
with students. I love the experience of being in a different classroom culture, it pushes me
out of my comfort zone and I always learn something new. I have learned to create lessons
regarding differentiation with all diverse students. I have also worked closely with the
English Language Specialists for many hours focusing on strategies to nurture each
individual student and their journey of learning English as a second language. Working
closely with English Language Learners has really given me great incite for strategies I can
use when teaching lessons, talking in the classroom, giving directions as well as classroom
set up. With my experience I am fully prepared to take student teaching head on.
PLEASE LIST EXTRA CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES IN WHICH YOU WOULD LIKE TO BE INVOLVED IN STUDENT
TEACHING:
-Tutoring students who need more one on one attention to better foster their needs as an individual
-Coaching Pre and Basketball Club
-Scrapbook
-Trinkets/Crafts
BRIEFLY DESCRIBE OUTSIDE INTERESTS THAT MIGHT ENRICH YOUR STUDENT TEACHING/PARTNERSHIP:
One of my favorite things about being an athlete at the collegiate level is being a part of a team. I have learned
through coaching, that I can foster and reach out to students needs and interests in a way that can reciprocate
back into the classroom. I would like to create a classroom culture that allows students to understand together
we will get to our end goals, and they arent alone on the journey.
